A less presumptuous name.

Gah! Beaten to it! Curse you Randomizer!

I would recommend going to the geneforge series forum. They have a link to Criokles (sp) editor, which has been modded to work for pretty much every game. It's always been my favorite layout. The biggest thing to remember is the line limits per script, so you may have to break it up into a few different zones. [Edit] Also, that makes it easier for people to pick and choose what parts of the editor they want.

Thanks, I didn't look for specifics, I just recall those being the general differences between classes.

Nice scripting or whatever, making them join your party. Although, I wouldn't recommend claiming that you shaped them all, the people here know the game's limits inside and out. [Edit] I've always wanted to be the person to say this: Welcome to spiderweb, leave your sanity at the door.

While there is no way to check the number, the oracle south of Zephyr Oasis can give you a general idea.

I've always been a fan of the shapers, so Alwan. Although, I do believe that there are a fair few changes that need to be made, but that's a topic for another ... topic.

It's in SC somewhere, they have different starting stats and stat-per-level bonuses.

Nope. The closest is the Ghaldring ending, but there are autokill nodes built in so that you die if you attack the wrong person, like anyone in Gazzaki-Uss, without a quest.

I personally have never built a shock trooper, but I've also never really used glaahks. I like fire shaping better. It gives you more missile power while you wait for the tralls and then the kyshaaks give the nice lightning aura.

That's a bit beyond me. Does anyone care to share just how one would go about doing that?

Nope, I just tried and it doesn't do anything.

if it's the door I'm thinking about: Click to reveal.. drat, beaten to it

The oracle outside of Taygen's place can give you a general idea, but that's about it.

I thought you might be, and, to the extent of my knowledge, no such code exists. However, if you know one, feel free to share!

That's likely, I'm not a particularly accomplished script reader. Although, I'm not sure which stats are/would be built in to the definitions.

Browsing through the scripts, I highlighted all the melee weapons that altered stats, went through identifying them, and here are the four best that I've found: "Living Knife" - +1 creation strength, dex "Captain's Shiv" - blessing magic +2, 8 creation damage shield "Empathy Blade" - minus 1 str, +2 creation str, 1 "Guardian Claymore" - +2 str, +6 QA, +2 creation str I may have overlooked a good one, and I'm not sure where they can be found off the top of my head.

I did alwan first with the poison. Then Taygen, he's the hardest. The Astoria, I used the underground entrance, killed a few people, booby trapped, and left. Finally Rawal, I still got the servant mind to help me.

Lethia Pass: begintalknode 30; state = 18; nextstate = 10; condition = 1; question = "Yes."; text1 = "_Then consider it done. I will start sending out my messages very soon. I hope that you will not betray my trust. Influence with the Shapers is valuable and rare._"; code = sf(67,7,1); inc_flag(100,0,10); break; Meeting Greta: begintalknode 179; state = 173; nextstate = 170; condition = 1; question = "Please do that for me."; text1 = "She nods. _Then I will begin as soon as we are through talking. My words carry great weight in these lands. I hope that you can justify my effort._"; text2 = "_Normally, I would not be so quick to trust you. But something about you seems ... Never mind. Just consider it done._"; code = inc_flag(100,0,-6); sf(61,29,1); break; Edit: Desmarestia, thanks for catching that, these make much more sense now.

Will do, a moment please

Reading through the scripts, this is what happens when you turn in the Haven: begintalknode 53; state = 38; nextstate = 30; condition = 1; question = "I found the Trakovites. (Say where the lair is.)"; text1 = "_Excellent. This is the opportunity I was hunting for. We will not wipe them out at once. Oh, no. We will watch. We will identify as many of them as we can. We will abduct them slowly and extract the information we want._"; text2 = "_Many Trakovites will cease their insurrection because of this information._ She gives you a large pouch of gold coins and a glittering charm. _Your reward for aiding the Shapers._"; code = inc_flag(100,0,3); set_flag(11,7,5); toggle_quest(42,4); award_party_xp(200,18); reward_give(322); change_coins(1000); break; I beleive that set_flag(11,7,5); is what you're looking for. It seems to give you +5 towards shaper. I'm not sure how much that helps, or even if my interpretation is correct, so feel free to correct me.

I don't think such a list has been compiled, but it's worth suggesting to the wonder-people who make the walkthroughs. Although, feel free to ask about individual quests if you can't find them.

I know that Randomizer has posted it, and I've reposted it a few times, just do a forum search for "Charms".

Fair enough. It just seems a tad odd that they would go around/across and entire continent. It may be a symptom of playing too much geneforge, but does anyone else think that a (semi-) official (hi)story of the geneforge would be interesting?

Perhaps, with the rebellion, the Council assumed control of all remaining provinces. Prior to that, it would make sense to stay holed up and let the continent run itself and only come out to spank those who were not content.
